Vehicle Involved in Hit and Run Death of Teens Found Near Home of Mother of One of the Teens

Officer Cy May, a spokesperson for the California Highway Patrol confirms that the vehicle allegedly at fault in the fatal hit and run deaths of two teenage girls last night has been located near Fortuna about a mile from the accident scene. “We located our suspect vehicle about a mile or so from the scene itself,” he said. “The residence is taped off and we are awaiting a search warrant.”

May declined to confirm on what street the vehicle had been located. However, the Times Standard is reporting that the vehicle was found at the end of Becker Lane. (Read their story here.)

Marci Kitchen, whose Facebook page identifies her as the mother of one the victims lives at the end of that street. Readers are telling us that the vehicle was located under a tarp in the backyard. Officer May was unwilling to confirm that information at this time.

UPDATE Thursday: Interview with attorney of suspect here.

Eureka Attorney Ben Okin, reached by phone this morning, said he is representing the suspect in the case and that, through him, she made contact with police yesterday. “We made contact with law enforcement,” Okin said. “They didn’t know who she was. We made contact with them. … As far as I know, at the time we made contact on the driver’s behalf, law enforcement didn’t have any information on the identity of the driver. That (call) is what led to them being able to serve the search warrant. It wasn’t something they discovered, as far as I know.”

Response: As if the chp is so stupid not to first check into the parents, where they live, what they drive, etc…. CHP is a trained agency that is not stupid, so give ’em credit when all the charges are brought against the driver.

A quick background check on parents of deceased reveals vehicle models, types, years, etc…

Attorneys are such liars and deflection con artists……and to put the ole political correctness, dumbfounded phrase into the story of, “as far as he knows” rubbish” OR, “We called them” rubbish too.

Guess what Eureka Attorney Ben Okin, no phone call was necessary if driver did not flee, but attorneys milk cases for all the wealth they can transfer into their pockets while commiting malpractice and misconducts to stretch shit out on behalf of the attorneys.

Either mommy dearest was driver or another relative or friend, which makes mommy dearest an accomplice to a cover up, possibly harboring a fugitive in a deceitful manner, aiding and abeting the delays of the criminal being apprehended immediately, the list could go on and on. Was driver insured?

People need to get a clue about lying attorneys at law destroying the justice system and lives of the “real victims”.

Attorney Ben Okin is the same slime representing Kade Chandler for 2 counts of gross vehicular manslaughter with special circumstances….those being (MARIJUANA, COCAINE, OPIATES and being DRUNK) killing two. This guy loves blood $$$ apparently. I wonder how he sleeps at night??

Wow!

Sleep, he probably sleeps very well after dining out on the town, paying his high class bills with the blood money, whether privately or publicly financed.

Thing is, once you retain an attorney, you get first hand experience of their slimeball ways as compulsive liars who really don’t give a rats ass about justice, but do care about covering up their lack of obligations.

I know these people and this family well, and seeing comments like this, just kills me. Toni is a good friend of mine, and I saw this comment earlier today from her. When she made this comment (read the time stamp), nobody knew anything We lost a mutual friend, our friend’s are grieving and the thing is already bad enough. It’s a tragedy, plain and simple. Joe and Marcy and Jevin, Stay strong. You have a lot of friends. WE are here for you guys… Internet trolls and BS comments should be kept to yourself. Go troll another topic please. Love ya Toni.

Just because family is family is not a reason to censor free discussion on facts.

Maybe people shoulda had a sit down family and friend round table discussion of the rights and wrongs in life, especially as it pertains to the public domain, driving and skateboarding.

Sorry for your loss, but using a loss to squelch free speech is as bad , and compoundingly worse as killing a persons voice, literally and figuratively.

Aside from the above, the expectation is that close friends and family dont blog in times like this, they console each other privately, not complain about what others say, think or do, unless the facts undermine the bs story the killer driver is about to lawyer up and provide…….which, btw, is much worse as a driving liar/child killer than a blogger discussing the facts or even a troll who only intends to insult personally another blogger.

PC is Americas downfall in times like these when suppression of free speech is encouraged.

What is sick is that she will attend the funeral all grief stricken but she wants too grief stricken after she hit them

She was anything other than grief stricken as she contemplated how to hide the evidence

Hopefully they’ll keep her in jail and she won’t even get the chance to plan the funeral let alone attend

Sounds harsh and you can all b$&&h if you want but it’s hard facts

What is harsh is her leaving the scene and hiding her vehicle and one girl HER girl may have made it if would have just stopped and helped. THAT is harsh

Sadly I heard from a good friend of the Fortuna police department that Marci was not only under the influence, but that she fled the scene not knowing she hit her own daughter, had she stopped, she probably would have saved her life. It is sad, disgusting, and selfish. Only after the news came out and she was contacted did she find out she killed her own daughter. This is the worst case of instant Karma. She was also driving over 70 mph to boot.

She’s the one who hit her own child and someone else’s child, fled the scene knowing she hit people obviously it wasnt even dark yet. Then covered her vehicle. And got a lawyer right away. She needs to pay for what she did. Its horrifying.

Reads as if it is either the mom, a dad, a sibling, a friend, or a neighbor tied to the jeep.

How coincidental, vehicle within a mile, and at the end of a dead end street, a dead end street where the mom lives at the end. Insurance companies always convey most tickets and accidents are within a mile or few of the driver’s home.

Weirdly coincidental and ironic.

Once it’s on the scanner and the KIEM reporter is posting pics of the location, it’s almost irresponsible to not report on it.

Its obvious you care and take the time to be as respectful as much as possible, which is above and beyond compared to some local reporters.

Birdie says a female adult has hired a lawyer!

Driver did not even stop, but fled and hid the vehicle.

Driver is a loser piece of shit. Based on other younger drivers leaving hit and run scenes, maybe the laws need to punish more severely drivers who flee? Maybe drivers need more tickets? Maybe, we need less people driving?Maybe DMV needs to cease handing out drivers licenses like candy to children?

Maybe parents need to do a better job of raising children in this overpopulated, fast paced world.

And maybe, parents as individuals can get back to self responsibility, instead of wreaking havoc on others with their irresponsibilities.

Your right, parents should cherish their children because thinking of life all of a sudden gone is a bomb drop. Death is the shortening of life, and if one loves life and all its trials and tribulations, death is a grim reminder to love as god damn much as ya can in the hope that when we die, we did as much loving as possible.

Love goes out to the 2 souls whose lives were cut down short by someone they knew.

I’m a long time local blog reader and mostly anon commenter … HOJ, please don’t bugger up this comment section.

I think your comments would resonate more if you would just be anon and not plug up the debate by over posting under HOJ. Also, please don’t start the 3rd person stuff. I really do enjoy reading your perspectives and I was against your ban from Loco.

You have chance to start fresh here … you should capitalize on it!!

Sasha, too bad your naivity has poisoned your open mindedness on how adults today are still pulling advertizing deceptions like tobacco companies in order to create profits while sexualizing minor girls through tabloid style public relations.

A business that claims it dont care what anyone else thinks, but then it cares people think its shirts use too much vulgar language, so the company realises its profits are affected, and changes because their wallets are doing the thinking.

Hipocrisy was proven in the articles thread, but hey, southern Humboldt for that matter breefs hipocrisy no different than elsewhere.

Out of respect,

I noticed that when HOJ started posting, Kym’s blog started getting a mass load of comments.

Why?

A different perspective is always brought to the discussion by myself.

Now, back to third person, HOJ out, 10 4.

Dear Creator watch out for the families that are hurting. This is a dark, sad, and very trying time!!!! I pray that the rumors are wrong but the pieces seem to be falling into place. Those two poor girls. There is no excuse for these deaths. Family or not, drunk or not, high or not… Let them pay the highest price!! And if it is family make them pay more! If the Law won’t I’m sure karma will!

Very well said..but I can’t help but wonder who in the hell does all the steps that was taken to hide the vehicle and to not once say a word to law enforcement..I am sorry I don’t care who you are but you are one sick individual and I understand that the person responsible for KILLING the two girls have family but let’s not forget that the person did not think twice about anyone but themselves and I am pretty sure the person didnt stop for one minute and think hmmm my poor family so why should everyone else..the tragedy is two innocent girls were killed in a brutal awful way and left there to lay on the cold ground alone to suffer all the while this sick POS went home and took the time to cover and hide the vehicle so it’s very obvious the person knew she did something horrible..I really hope there is no pity shown to her and she gets what she has coming from the law and karma

That is an example right there with people in Humboldt – Too many lies and deceit are being believed by people and it takes an extreme event to open eyes to truth about people.

Lack of being open minded is a mental health disorder.

I’m sorry, did you really just say she was probably just drunk and made a mistake because she didn’t want to get in trouble? And that we have all been drunk and made mistakes? Yes, I have made mistakes while drunk…I threw up in the sink and not the toilet, I kissed a girl I wouldn’t have if I was sober, and I showed up home an hour after I told my husband I would be home. Those are mistakes! Running over 2 people and leaving them there alone to suffer and die and still never come forward, that is not a mistake! What this person has done is beyond comprehension. RIP sweet angels

Seriously? “Being judgmental”? “Just drunk and didn’t want to get in trouble”? “Grow up people”?
I was reading through the comments and feeling the pain of the families, but when I came across this my jaw hit the floor. How can anyone excuse a drunk driver that took the lives of two little girls and then took steps to cover it up? It brings to mind what another hit and run driver said when they killed someone, “they were just a bum.” Well, “they were just drunk” makes as much sense. Not just the families, but the friends of these children will be forever changed and the futures of these girls were stolen. But I guess we should take comfort in the fact that they “were probably just drunk”! Because apparently that makes it all better. The other posts were making me sad, this one just pissed me the f**k off!

Insensitive or factual, we can agree to disagree.

Tough shit, people should open their eyes to what people know and stop with the censorship tactics.

This is a news thread, not an obituary.

HOJ apologizes your gut is not strong enough in tough times, but HOJ has a right to say what is being said, it is not insulting either, so please quit crying like school children who dont get their way.

“Condemning” someone and discussing current events on an internet forum based on limited information are two different things. We shouldn’t be condemning people based on police press releases, either. That’s what the courts are for. By internet forum standards, this conversation has been very civil.

The speculation and assumption from most of the commenters is disgusting, and you should all be ashamed of your selves.

This is a horrible tradegy that happened to this family and to speculate, assume and spew tabloid ( not the reporter) is cruel and sick.

Those children are gone. Someone’s children. Imagine what the family is going through as well as the driver who at this point has not been officially identified to the public. I will assume nothing except that it was a tragic accident. I feel for all involved. You all should too. Maybe I will feel differently tommorow, but I all not berate the family members or assume what should be done, or what has been done.

I know the woman at that house. I worked in her home back in March of 2015 and she had shown me a magazing with the Jeep she was going to buy. She drove a newer maxima at that time. I spent a good part of the day with her and we talked about our families, work and life in general. I even worked in her daughters room. I can’t believe it’s her. She should have came foward right away. I feel so bad for the poor girls in what seems like a terrible accident. But regardless you don’t run and hide! I can only assume that the panic of what happened kicked in and actions were made out of desperation and not out of proper judgment. No Kim you did not give away who lived there. The pictures from times standard and my memory of the home made me go back into my files from a year ago and see if that was the address I worked at was. Sadly it was and the memories of the Jeep dealership book and all sorts of emotions and shock overcame me. I honestly don’t know how to respond except my thoughts are with the two girls who are no longer with us. 🙁

In any event, whether the person responsible knew it was her daughter or not…the result is sadly the same…a child was left on the side of the road dying. I cant imagine what must be going through the alleged driver/child’s mother’s mind as she realized it was not only 2 children but her own daughter and her friend whom she probably fed at one time or another and tucked into bed at a sleep over…I offer up prayers for her and hope that its not so…but with whats been reported so far, it appears it is in fact true…she ran over her own daughter and her friend and now they are taking their last journey home 🙁

Please remember, there very well can be siblings that are hurting and being drug through this horror. Their lives have been damaged. Their future hopes mangled. They have to pick up the pieces and move forward and survive this themselves. They have to find away to cope and start school in the fall. It is going to be horrifically difficult for them. The parents of all of these children are going to be suffering and not as “present” as they could be. Everybody hurts.

Adults make horrible mistakes that children have to pay for. Let’s send good energy and hope to these young people. They are on the brink of adulthood, let’s help them find a positive light in all this dark horror. A living nightmare.

Jealousy. Apathy. General blase. The only people hassling here are those that can’t do a better job than she is. Or they’re miffed because she provides a public service they feel they’re more deserving (in their reality) than she is. To them I’d say “Don’t quit your day job”, but they might not have one.

I know Marci….this is tragic…
Her daughter died knowing what it was like to h loved by her mom…son will live a different path now..
People should focus on the good…how do we prevent people from being ran over? Better speed limits…cars with avoidance systems…. Cars that can’t go faster than posted limits…all of those are easily in our grasp….
I cared. About Marci…even contacted the cops a few times about bad driving when she was involved (but not the one driving) a few times…even wrote and gave her letters trying to help her see the danger… Is that not what we do about people we care about?
This is sad.. But Marci loved her daughter…
But there were two girls… And she left…that part leaves little room for …
If she spends her life doing all she can to pay a debt that can never be paid…..
I cared for her like Ive cared about no other woman… I’ll be in tears over this for a long time…
